Feature Request: Support AGENTS.md
GitHub issue requesting support for AGENTS.md in Claude Code.
Intelligence analysis by Qwen 2.5 (3B)
A GitHub user has opened an issue suggesting the addition of support for AGENTS.md to improve collaboration with other developers who are not using Claude Code.
This issue is asking for a new file called AGENTS.md to be used in the Claude Code software. It's like having a common language that everyone can understand when working on projects together, even if they're using different programs.
Analysis
Background
Codex, Amp, Cursor, and other agents have standardized on AGENTS.md (https://agents.md/), a unified Markdown file for understanding codebases. In contrast, CLAUDE.md is specific to Claude Code.
What Changed
The current issue body describes the need for support in CLAUDE.md as it does not work well when other developers who are not using Claude Code collaborate on projects.
Implications
Supporting AGENTS.md would allow for better collaboration and standardization across different coding tools, improving developer productivity and code understanding.
Key points
- Feature Request: Support AGENTS.md
- Codex, Amp, Cursor, and other agents have standardized on AGENTS.md
- CLAUDE.md is specific to Claude Code and does not work well for collaboration
Supporting AGENTS.md could lead to more developers being able to work together seamlessly across different tools and environments.
If the feature is not implemented, it might cause confusion or difficulty for developers who are not familiar with Claude Code's specific file format.
